Comprehensive Comics KanColle: Building a Dimensional Empire from Scratch.

The living standards of ordinary people have improved. Not only will they not complain about the rule of the suzerain state, but they will be grateful and thank the heavenly soldiers for bringing them electricity, penicillin and fertilizers.

Finally, the Demon Slayer world can be turned into a stable rear base here.

A win-win situation, or even a win-win-win situation.

It is more than one level higher than predatory colonization.

"Wow, that's so complicated..."

"Let's go back and think about it slowly..."

The Ninghai and Pinghai sisters were confused after hearing what Lu Chen said and left with the plan he gave them.

……

After arranging the follow-up work.

Lu Chen confirmed the development of the port area and this area over the past month.

Most of the construction work in the capital has been completed, the industrial zone has been put into production, and the buildings in the residential and administrative areas have all been completed.

However, the population is not large now. Even with the newly added Buri and Manju, it does not exceed 600 people.

In a huge city of 5 square kilometers, it seems a bit too empty.

Even the little yellow chickens can get a duplex villa, although they are more accustomed to living in their own shacks.

The port area is still tirelessly experimenting with new weapons, sending out several teams of ship girls and pilots every day to clean up the surrounding waters and harass Big Eyed Cute.

The Siren's naval guns cannot reach the sky, and the firepower of anti-aircraft guns and fighter jets cannot break the ship girl's defense.

For a time, the scope of activities in the port area expanded significantly.

They are still continuing to research and experiment to see if there are more advanced and portable weapons, preferably ones that can defeat high-level Sirens.

Generally speaking, the development on both sides is good. After the materials from the Demon Slayer world begin to be fed back here, with an entire world as a logistics base, Lu Chen feels that they will soon be able to reach the space age.

"Where's my Gundam?"

He suddenly remembered one thing.

Before setting off, Akashi was already working on the Gundam. Now that the KanColle flying soldiers have been built, he doesn't know how the Gundam is doing.

Soon, he walked all the way to Akashi's studio.

Bang-bang-bang-bang-

There was a ping-pong sound coming from inside, like someone was forging something.

"Hello? Akashi?"

Lu Chen knocked on the door.

"Commander, welcome home, meow."

The beast-eared little ship girl opened the door with a snap

"Please choose your battle unit, and remember to pay me, nya."

Chapter 42 Do you want Gundam Unicorn or KanColle Unicorn?

Akashi's studio is quite large, and it would be more accurate to call it a factory rather than a studio.

Various lathes, tower cranes and smelting furnaces are available.

Dozens of people were holding tools, moving back and forth inside, hammering and banging.

After all, it is a maintenance ship in the port area, and the ships usually used for experiments are those weighing thousands or tens of thousands of tons.

The first thing Lu Chen saw when he entered was a row of Gundams standing by the wall.

They are arranged in order of height, from left to right, and there are nine of them in total.

The one on the far left is khaki in color and looks a bit crude. It is about 17 or 18 meters tall.

At first glance, he is just a small fry in Gundam.

The machines on the right have a completely different style, with tough lines and complex equipment, and they are obviously high-end products.

"You made so many?!"

Lu Chen was surprised.

"Technological research and development must be done step by step. If we don't build the lower-level models and understand their technical principles, we won't be able to build more powerful Gundams."

Mingshi took Lu Chen to visit his masterpiece.

"So, I've built most Gundams, from basic models to advanced versions, meow. As long as we can build one, you can drive any one you want."

"The one on the far left is the Zaku prototype. Um, about 50 tons, equipped with a saber and two machine guns."

"Then there's this Zaku II. It's more maneuverable and armored than the original, and its machine guns are larger in caliber..."

"But they are all mass-produced. Commander, you definitely don't need them..."

Upon closer inspection, the mechas were extremely large, and Lu Chen and Mingshi couldn't even reach their knees.

To produce so many models in more than a month, in addition to Bri's amazing ability to work, Akashi must have also put in a lot of effort.

"Thank you."

Lu Chen rubbed Mingshi's head and rubbed her animal ears.

"Wow! Commander! Listen carefully to my introduction, meow!"

"Even if you flirt with the boss lady, you won't get a discount!!"

Akashi blushed and twitched his ears.

The two of them continued forward.

"From now on, it's Hero Gundam's territory!"

She pointed at a blue and white Gundam holding a giant hammer spear.

"ASW-G-08, Barbatos."

"Hmm, according to the technical manual, it seems to be the vehicle of a man named Mikazuki Augustus?"

"This Gundam excels in close combat and is highly maneuverable."

Lu Chen looked up at Barbatos, driving a Gundam and beating people with a hammer spear, which was indeed a very violent aesthetic.

It shouldn't be a problem for this thing to sink a warship with one full-strength hit.

He just feels a bit rustic. After swallowing the Mind Cube, he has enough strength to beat people up at close range, but lacks the ability to attack from a distance.

"RX-0, Unicorn."

Next to Barbatos is a pure white Gundam.

It has a prominent single horn on its head and is slightly larger than the Barbatos.

"This mecha can activate Destroy Mode, meow!"

"After turning on Destruction Mode, you can deploy a mental force field to resist ordinary ranged attacks, and you can also control the floating cannon!"

"Hmm, the pilot's name is Banagher Links?"

Akashi introduced excitedly.

"NTD?... I really want to drive a unicorn..."

Lu Chen stroked his chin and looked at the mecha.

"That's it?"

"Uh, I'm talking about another unicorn. I can bring a unicorn with me and drive a unicorn in the future. And then I can have fun with the unicorn in the unicorn..."

"???"

Akashi was confused.

Next, there is another classic model.

With a white and blue body and eight armed wings spread out on the back like angel wings, this mecha is highly recognizable.

"Strike Freedom, pilot Kira Yamato."

"It's powered by a tritium engine, a bit like nuclear fusion, but also a bit different. The technology in the Gundam world is quite strange..."

"It's equipped with the MGX-2235 Blazing Complex Beam Cannon on its abdomen. After testing at the port, it's proven powerful enough to defeat high-level sirens."

"There's also a beam saber and a beam shield. Hmm, but I still don't understand why the Gundam needs close combat. But it's on the blueprint, so I built it anyway..."

Mingshi muttered to himself while introducing Lu Chen.

"Besides, there are Gundam Exia and Gundam Infinite Destiny..."

"All the Gundams that can be built are here, except for the ones that are too complicated, which I am still researching..."

"Commander, which one do you want to drive, meow?"

In addition to the three mass-produced machines, Akashi produced six of the protagonist Gundams.

Both the performance and structure have completely replicated the combat effectiveness of the original.

These Gundams have very high requirements on the technicians' physical fitness and mental strength, but with the help of the Mind Cube, it is not a problem.

"Can the Gundam's equipment be changed later?"

Lu Chen suddenly asked.

Although these Gundams are classics, they are just "other people's Gundams" and their various equipment are customized according to their pilots.

He wanted a Gundam of his own even more.

"Sure, meow. These Gundams' equipment can be disassembled and arranged in different configurations. If necessary, we can even install naval guns."

Akashi nodded.

"But at the beginning, I suggest that the Commander familiarize himself with the operation first before considering customization."

"Okay, try this first."

Lu Chen thought for a moment and chose Strike Freedom.

I climbed up the stairs and into the cockpit.

click -

After sitting firmly, a colorful holographic control interface appeared in front of my eyes.

Although it was his first time driving a mecha, Lu Chen was able to quickly master the movements of controlling the mecha as if he had learned it by himself.

"Is it because I can be compatible with the powers of other worlds? Not bad."

"Set off."

The dome above the naval base slowly opened.

Boom——

The ship girl and Bri, who were playing on the shore, watched in surprise as a Gundam glided past and quickly rose into the air with a tail flame.

The destroyers flying in the sky were even more frightened.

"Commander! The Commander is flying into the sky on a Gundam!!"

"Commander, take me with you, I want to drive a Gundam too!!!"

...

(Pictured is Strike Freedom)

Chapter 43 I Think I Am Gundam

boom--

Lu Chen piloted the Strike Freedom, ejected from the naval base at subsonic speed, and then gradually increased the distance on the sea.

Suddenly, two columns of water shot up into the sky in front of the port of the Golden Horn.

This Gundam is about 18 meters tall and weighs 80 tons. It is covered with VPS armor, a unique armor in the Gundam world that can effectively defend against live ammunition.
